Molly Stevens: A new way to grow bone
What does it take to regrow bone in mass quantities? Typical bone regeneration -- wherein bone is taken from a patient’s hip and grafted onto damaged bone elsewhere in the body -- is limited and can cause great pain just a few years...

TED: Meet the microscopic life in your home -- and on your face | Anne Madden
Behold the microscopic jungle in and around you: tiny organisms living on your cheeks, under your sofa and in the soil in your backyard. We have an adversarial relationship with these microbes -- we sanitize, exterminate and disinfect...

TED: electrical experiments with plants that count and communicate | Greg Gage
Neuroscientist Greg Gage takes sophisticated equipment used to study the brain out of graduate-level labs and brings them to middle- and high-school classrooms (and, sometimes, to the TED stage.) Prepare to be amazed as he hooks up the...

TED: The science of cells that never get old | elizabeth Blackburn
What makes our bodies age ... our skin wrinkle, our hair turn white, our immune systems weaken? Biologist elizabeth Blackburn shares a Nobel Prize for her work finding out the answer, with the discovery of telomerase: an enzyme that...

Life-like Blobs Formed in a Test Tube
How did the very first cells evolve? Most of the basic building blocks can be produced in simple experiments under early Earth-like conditions. However, certain complex cellular behaviours, like movement, have always seemed far-beyond...

Nano-bots to Cure Cancer?
You may have heard of nano-robots, but are these really “robots” (like Transformers), or are they something completely different? Professor Stoyan Smoukov shows us how nano-scale devices can be easily ‘grown’ from simple sources and how...

What causes Alzheimer's Disease?
Alzheimer's Disease is a horrible condition that can strike at the brain of your loved ones and steal their memories and lives. But what is Alzheimer's Disease? What's going on in the brain? Is Alzheimer's just a normal part of aging?...
